Is Lending Club legitimate ?

[chuckwood]

I was kinda looking at personal loans to fix up a house to sell it soon and not rack up the credit card debt. I get the mailers from best egg and lending club seems like daily. I checked Penfed and the rate was 12.99%. My local bank there starting rates are not even competitive. I don't quilify for Navy. I went ahead and checked Lending Club and the rate was 6.34% but had the fee of $400. To me it sounds like a good deal but I didn't know how easy they are to deal wtih. Any ideas or comments are appriciated.

I've used them and had no issue.  I paid it off early and there was no prepay penalty.  They were easy to deal with.

I've had a great experience with LC. I have a $40k personal loan with them since Dec 2021 for debt consolidation and reports as an installment loan on your CR. TU pulled at that time was ~724. The application process was very smooth. I'll be paying off the loan early (no pre-payment which is nice) and hopefully re-fi for a lower rate if possible. The downside is the origination fee. Happy to answer any questions if you have them.

Thanks everyone for your input. I just didn't want to pull the trigger and miss something in the fine print and regret it.
